At first, this printer was fairly easy to use. I use this in my office, and am able to print two-sided, just as long as I refill the paper correctly. It is a lot faster than other printers that I have owned. However, since day one this printer has left off an unfriendly stench after printing, due to the toner. The scanner stopped working after the second time I used it. The printer is also very loud and noisy, making it somewhat difficult to focus while on the phone or dealing with customers. I've had two of these, this one and the one similar to this but without the fax, and use them on an everyday basis. One problem that I've had with both of them is around a year of use, they seem to not print on one side of the page. For instance, I'll have a normal sheet of paper printed, however there will be a thick white line down the middle or side of the paper. The printer will say to Replace the Drum, however replacing the drum is very expensive and has proven quite useless after a few months. This printer is okay in price and easy to use, however it is not meant for a long-term investment, giving way after a year of use.

Happy with the built and features, but It is extremely loud machine when operate. Beside that, the machine gives off uncomfortable toner smell after use. I expected more from a trusted brand like Panasonic.

This is a great llittle machine at a terrific price from Abt--and they also paid the shipping. Panasonic tech support isn't great but if you persist and eventually find a human being, they are smart and helpful.
